Benny's Big Time has reopened for take-out
Are y’all hanging in there? We have missed y’all so much and appreciate all the messages of love and support and inquiries about our reopening over the last few weeks. Our pizza mafia has been in the kitchen, lighting the ovens and getting things going again. It feels so good to be back at work even though so much has changed.
We have some good news: tomorrow, we’ll re-open our takeout program, Benny’s at Home, with pizza, salad and wine. We’re keeping it simple to start, but as we get our footing in this new world, we’ll add more offerings. Our number one priority is the safety of our guests and staff, so we’ve put measures in place to ensure you’ll feel more comfortable than ever ordering takeout from us. In addition to sanitizing surfaces every half-hour and wearing masks at all times, we also have a new online ordering system and contactless pickup infrastructure in place. You can still call and place your order over the phone with a credit card, as well. We won’t accept cash at this time.
When you arrive to pick up your order at your designated time, park in the adjacent parking lot in spaces market for Benny’s or the street as available. Your order will be waiting for you through our front door in the vestibule with your name and order number on it. If there is someone in the vestibule when you arrive, please wait for them to exit.
We are also offering in-house delivery, in addition to UberEats and DoorDash, which allows us to keep our incredible staff working.
We’ll be open 5-9 Tuesday-Thursday and 5-10 on the weekends.
